T on the Fringe

T on the Fringe is the popular music side of the fringe festival. This year there are about 50 concerts from different acts right throughout the month of August. Last night I went to see the Beautiful South playing at the Corn Exchange. It's a compact venue with great acoustics and it was a great chance to see one of my favourite bands in Edinburgh as many groups simply don't bother coming to the city...they tend to go to Glasgow instead, as admittedly, Glasgow's venues for live music are vastly superior. T on the Fringe will see concerts by Simple Minds, Belle & Sebastian, Keane, Muse, Snow Patrol, Starsailor, Cerys Matthews to name just some of the acts performing.
